Sure. However, as it stands on both master and 1.6-branch, all the DDX
except Xorg start with these defaults. So, they have an invalid
default model of "dflt" as far as I can tell. Also, the
XKB_BASE_DIRECTORY setting could be dropped from this patch. It's
always defined in configure, so the hardcoded /usr/share/X11/xkb
should never actually get used.
What did you have in mind to fix this properly?
